Good To Know: Dominio do Bibei is one of Galicia’s most acclaimed wineries, located in the rugged Ribeira Sacra region of north-west Spain. Founded in 2001, the estate tends steep, terraced vineyards planted mainly with indigenous varieties such as Mencía, Brancellao and Mouratón for reds, and Godello and Albariño for whites. Situated at elevations between 350 and 920 metres on schist, slate and granite soils, the vines are farmed by hand and the gravity-flow winery is built into the hillside to preserve the natural freshness and character of the grapes.
Their wines are admired for their purity, minerality and elegance, showcasing the distinctive terroir of Ribeira Sacra with vibrant red and dark berry fruit, floral and herbal notes, and a fresh, balanced palate. Signature labels such as *Lalama*, *Lacima*, *Lapola* and *Lalume* have become benchmarks for authentic Galician wine, making Dominio do Bibei an essential choice for those seeking distinctive, small-production Spanish reds and whites.
Dominio do Bibei Lalama 2021 is a refined red from Galicia’s Ribeira Sacra, crafted mainly from Mencía with small amounts of native varieties such as Brancellao, Mouratón, Sousón, and Garnacha Tintorera. Sourced from steep, high-altitude vineyards of slate, granite, and clay, it is fermented with indigenous yeasts and aged for up to 20 months in seasoned French oak barrels and foudres before bottling. The result is a wine of vibrant character and depth, offering aromas of ripe black cherries, blackberries, floral notes, subtle spice, and a distinctive mineral freshness. Smooth yet structured on the palate, it’s a versatile choice that pairs beautifully with grilled meats, rustic stews, mushrooms, or semi-aged cheeses, making it a standout addition to any wine collection.
